The collision involved a moving train and another stopped farther along the track south of Madrid. Dozens of people were seriously injured, while investigators and emergency crews worked to establish the precise sequence of events. The disaster has renewed scrutiny of rail safety in Spain, which has experienced a second deadly train crash this year; the transport minister said authorities would pursue answers over reported safety failures.
